As WP's managing editor, I edit review and preview articles, attempt to keep up with the frantic pace of Rainier's news posts, and keep our reviewers on deadline, which is akin to herding cats. When I have a moment to myself and don't have my nose in a book, I like to play action/RPG, adventure and platforming games.

This multilanguage update patch includes all previous changes. You only need to install update v30520. If you have any kind of mods installed, please remove them before installing the update otherwise Soldner's Anti Cheat Tool WACHE will take actions.

Changelist of the upcoming Patch #4:

Portal/Server/Interface

Portal server flood protection implemented.

Failsafe filter added in for !rcon server commands to prevent details being displayed publicly when commands are mistyped.

Add lock for the max player’s option.

Jesus pose fixed, no more occurrences of this should be seen.

Implemented a check to decrease the frequency that tanks and vehicles are seen to bounce around in craters.

Players may now vote themselves as commander when alone in a server.

Added web image for map "Silver Eye".

Fixed a bug where the name of the commander you want to vote for would not be passed on correctly, thus canceling your vote.

Fixed a bug where the commander vote command would be issued using a bad syntax.

Changed order of "Strafe left" and "Strafe right" in German version so they now read correctly.

Changed "Single player" for English and German into "Training”.

Double kill message fixed.

Memory leak fixed in regards to server buffer overwrite.

Loading times optimized.

In the config.ini a server setting has been added which allows the server administrator to set a high ping kick option if a player exceeds the ping for x amount of time. Default is disabled. Note this can affect players who use voice comms, as it monitors the traffic.

The Web Admin Tool and the Rcon command passwords can now be different. This will allow server providers to set a different password for the Web Admin Tool and the in game rcon commands.

Helicopters and planes now get proper damage when they hit trees: planes now explode if the velocity is more then 25 km/h upon contact and helicopters now explode if the velocity is more then 50 km/h upon contact.

Land rover and BJ-212A now have a proper vehicle handling.

Plane rudders adjusted so that handling is slower and more controllable.

The light textures of the Izh 2126 have been corrected, minor texture change.
